Dec. 15.—The Na tional Government may be compelled to refund $1,500,000 erroneously collected from insurance companies under the corporation tax law as “dividends" as the result of action by the Supreme Court to-day. The court dismissed an appeal of H. C. H. Herold, internal revenue collector of Newark, N. J., from a decision of a lower court holding in favor of the Mu tual Benefit Life Insurance Company of Newark. It is expected that the Government will drop this fight and permit the in surance companies to get back the overcharged tax without anj' further lit igation.

You may say someone told him, but who told him? Meeting Prearranged, He says “His meeting with Mary Phagan n Saturday was all prearranged by him. Mary did not know that signs had been posted telling the employee* to draw their pay on Friday night. Frank knew that she would come at the usual time—noon Saturday. “When Helen Ferguson, a friend of Mary’s, went to get Mary’s pay Fri day night. Frank would not let her have it He knew if he did Mary would not be at the factory on : h*' morrow. Every step leadlne up to th3 tragedy was planned. Even Jim Con ley wits asked by Frank to come around on Saturday so as to be on watch while the Phagaq girl was th. re. “The State -roved without ques tion that Frank was of bad charac ter. We established it by the best witnesses obtainable—by girls, young girls, who had worked at the facto y and who at the tin.e of their testifying had been removed from the influent s of the factory. “The defense sought to establish Frank’s good character. They did it by friends of the defendant who knew nothing about the factory or Frank’s conduct there But it was ut the factors that the murder \vn com- j mitted. and it was there that his im moralities took place ’ Advances Time Argument. Dorsey called the attention of the I court to the testimony of a conductor* who said that the car on which Mary i Phagan rode reached the city at 12:03. I a fact which the Solicitor .'aid ef- 1 feetively set at rest all the quibble over the time element. Mary could have entered the factory and gone to the metal room with Frank before Monteen Stover entered, he declared Dorsey and Attorney Arnold were the only speakers of the forenoon Attorney Arnold spoke two hours and 40 minutes, leaving but an hour and twenty minutes ifnder the four- hour argument granted each side by the court. The Solicitor said that Attorney General Felder would oc cupy part of the time for the State. Arnold, in closing his address, charged that Frank was convicted solely on Insinuation, innuendo and trumped-up charges, and that the So licitor had gom- outside his functions as a prosecuting officer in order to hang the defendant. Says Dorsey Twisted Facts. "Your honors would not believe thit such inconsequential and Irrelevant evii'cnre could b< - o d fcinn a de fendant. but her ( it s. right here tn the record!” he exclaimed. “It is al most unbelievable that such methods con’d be used in convicting a man, | and that they could be successful in j a Georgia court of justice.” Arnold accused Solh itor Dor.*-' ' • t •’nt clr- i n t o i note tc had LMH tad de laying hold of every Inslgnifb cumstance and twisting most auspicious incident in realize Ills ambition fop Fran vh'tion. He cited th-’ letter Frank h1» uncle, M, Frank, as an cd the manner In* v ich Dot distorted every particle of into a mountain of suspicion. The letter, Arnold aid. was most natural message in the work and yet the Solicitor bad made it <>; ns a subterfuge and as :i most posit is indication of 1‘iwik's guilt Calls Dorsey Unfair. Dorsov improperly and unf.- rl argued that Frank’s wife had a sclousness of his guilt, Nrnold dared, because she had not visit d him at the J^JFfor several da\s af r his arrest. He had branded Fran’, as a rp i banded murderer merely hem us. Frank had been in the factory at the time. The Solicitor had declared th fendnnt guilty, first because nervous, and later because calm and collected. "Ho was guilty because he had hired counsel," said Arnold. "He was guilty because he bad told Newt Lee he could have a holiday Saturday afternoon, the day Mary Phagan was murdered He was guilty because big John Gantt scared him Saturday night. “Why. your honor, they haven't a shadow- of a case, against Frank, ex cept on the testimony of the lying Jim Conley. “It is built upon Just such flimsy circumstances as T have cited. It is evidence which a judge should riot even submit it to a jury. The early part of Arnold’s address de- h ■ was ho was to ' ' mrt was given over to a de scription of the National pencil fac tor.', where Mary Phagan was mur dered, and to a review of the entire 1 *ise. who-h hu characterized one of the deep* ; murder mysteries that c\*' 11;id perplexed a community. His first direct argument had ref erence to the time element which pi i' < I a large part, in the testimony and arguments throughout Frank's trial and later in the arguments in behalf of a new trial before Judge Roan. 11^ contended that the testimony of the state’s own witnesses made it palpably impossible that Mary Pha gan could ha\< been attacked or murdered at the time the State con tended the crime was done. Georg© Epps, a State's witness, testified that he rode io town with Mary Phagan the day she was slain and that she arrived at Forsyth and Marietta streets at 12:07 o’clock. Allowing four minute to walk to the pencil fac tory, Arnold argued that the fac tory girl could not have reached there before 12:11 o’clock. But the .State, he said, maintained that the Phagan girl hail arrived there be fore 12:05 o'clock, or actually before the < ir on which sin rode arrived in the city. Dorsey had to do this, ac cording to the attorney, in order to make it fit in with his theory that Monteen Stover, who entered the fac tory nt 12:05, was unable to find Frank in his office because it was at this moment that the young superin tendent was in Hie rear of the fac tory in the act of strangling the Pha gan girl to death. Get* More T i me. Arnold. In asking for an extension of (:rne before he hexaii his ar(fu- mtm represented that the trial had been so Ions and th« testimony so voluminous that it «odd not be prop erly discussed In ll»* usual two hours allotted lo e*rh s’lde, Tte asked for an extension of at Isajrt three hours Presidtnc .luatice Fewer)y t>. Frans announced that Kadi side would be Stiver an Hdddtionpl (wo hours, which will template the cajte Tuesday after noon. Always the exemplification of sar torial perfection, Mr. Arnold was dies, ed in a lifht brown striped suit that had the appearance of being fresh from his Lal’tor. A pair of thick- soled Ian shoes, n neglige shirt with blue stripes and a carefully tied brown cravat completed his visible, attire. A number of Firank’a friends list ened interestedly to tho argument., of the opposing attorneys. Deter ives .John N. Starnes and Patrick Campbell, who were detailed to aid the Solicitor in the investigation of 11 io mystery, arritved soon after the hearing began. The arguments were iaeaivi by Su preme Court Justices Beverly D. Kvans, S. C. Atkinson and H. Warner Hill. 11 was expected Monday when the hearing began tjiat th* arguments would be prarttaally in the same or der as before Judge.
